<h4>Chapter 2911: Moving Towards Tiger Ridge!</h4>

    “The ‘God of War’ of the past is too old now. He was fooled by a lieutenant who was merely a space pirate and lost an arm for nothing, What’s there to be scared of?


    “The rebels are already caught in chaos. As long as the Heavenly Soldiers arrive andunch a thunderous attack, the rebels will certainly be blown to smithereens!


    “We annihted the rebels in the Jade Cauldron Sector, and the rebels of the Empyrean Terminus Sector suffered heavy losses against the members of the Star Glory Federation. The final victory was secured without any trouble!


    It could be said that he was blowing his own trumpet, that he was trying to cheer himself up, that he was trying to numb his nerves, or that he was forcing himself to have the belief that he was going to win. In short, in less than half a day, such arguments were already flying everywhere inside and


    outside the pce on Yellow Dragon.


    Below the four electors, almost all the nobles were eager to fight. None of them were as prudent as Song Bugui.


    There was something else that was not worth mentioning. A lot of starships and soldiers in the rebel fleetmanded by Lei Chenghu were captured by the revolutionaries in the Battle of the Seven Seas and the battle of the imperial capital.


    In other words, the starships had been painstakingly built by the four families over hundreds of years!


    The starships had only joined the revolutionaries not long ago. It was impossible to purge all the officers and soldiers who were in charge of the starships. There were still a lot of personnel left in the old system. Many of them might have found that the situation was not good and decided to serve their


    old masters again.


    At least, that was what the four electors thought.


    Therefore, of course, they had to win first ce and try to recruit more starships under theirmand from Lei Chenghu’s side. It would be great if they could capture other starships, too.


    Driven by theplicated and unpredictable mentality, the fleets stationed in the Yellow Dragon Sector were all ready for battle.


    Not just the main force of the fleet, even the few defense fleets in low-Earth orbit that were not suitable forrge-scale space jumps, and even the supplementary fleets made of semi-armed carriers, were packed with the ambitious Immortal Cultivators who were trying to take advantage of the situation


    and shout that they would “defend the honor of His Majesty’.


    In the hintend of the other few sects, a lot of starships that had been gathered in a hurry requested the coordinates of the Jade Tripod Sector so that they could jump there and fight together.


    The starships were truly a bunch of mobs. Usually, they would flee when they heard Lei Chenghu’s name. But right now, they were trying to make up the numbers.


    Faced with the chaotic, noisy, and self-serving situation, the entire Song family was having a headache, but there was nothing they could do.


    Song Lixing, on the other hand, was more and more in favor of Song Bugui’s suggestion. It seemed that he had to find a way to gather all the big shots of the military and monitor them closely. Otherwise, who knew whether or not they would bypass Song Bugui and directly issue an order to their


    respective fleets to fight and take the credit?


    Song Bugui’s words had already burnt away Song Lixing’s rationality. All he could think of was how to defeat Lei Chenhu and be the next ‘god of war.


    Of course, Song Lixing would never force the leaders of the military to board his gship. It would be too obvious and foolish.


    Song Lixing knew exactly what those people were thinking. He merely announced that he would board the gship with part of the leadership of the militarymittee and challenge Lei Chenghu in person as themander-in-chief. The officers of the militarymand department, the military


    government department, the main camp, the staff department, and the national defensemittee all crowded around him like flies that had smelled sweetness. They crowded onto the gship together with him impatiently, insisting that they should jointlymand and fight against the God of War’.


    It seemed that none of the nobles of the four noble families was willing to let go of the great opportunity to ‘defeat Lei Chenghu’. None of them were willing to watch Lei Chenghu’s head fall into somebody else’s hands. They would rather stick together and monitor each other. If I can’t get Lei Chenghu’s


    head, you won’t, either!


    When the high and mighty military leaders and nobles boarded the gship, Song Bugui, themander-in-chief of the fleet, had been waiting at the entrance of the starship with his head lowered.


    The big shots, on the other hand, despised him and simply walked past him.


    It was true that Lei Chenghu’s subordinates were in a mess right now. Victory was within their reach. After they took back their starship, it was only natural that they rebuilt their own fleet. The fleet of the Heaven’s Origin Sector was merely a deformed product of the transition. Why should it continue to


    exist?


    He had chosen Song Bugui, the Education Director’ of the Star Ocean Imperium, to be themander-in-chief of the fleet because he had always been mediocre and prudent. He did not have much ambition or strength, and he was a role that all parties could rest assured that he would not utter a single


    sound even if the me hit his head.


    Right now, maybe in two to three days, it would be of no use at all. Why bother with him?


    Only Song Lixing and Song Bugui exchanged a meaningful look when they boarded the gship.


    “Chairman…”


    ‘When nobody was around, Song Bugui said in a low voice, “So many high officials have boarded our gship, but there don’t seem to be many guards?”


    “Because there are too many high-level officials who belong to various sects, many of whom have deep grudges with each other in the past. No one is willing to let other people bring too many guards. Therefore, Il take the lead and no one will bring any.”


    Song Lixing exined, “Besides, the elite soldiers under yourmand, the Core Formation Stage Cultivators and Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators who boast amazingbat ability, have all been assigned to the arsenals and assault warships on the frontline. They are preparing to march into Lei


    Chenghu’s battle formation and harvest his head. If they are lucky, they might even be able to harvest Lei Chenghu’s head directly. Which expert would be willing to let such a great achievement be stolen by somebody else?


    “Isn’t it safe here? We can’t let Lei Chenhu’s starship crash into our gship, can we?


    “How is that possible?”


    Song Bugui was amused. “You worry too much, Chairman.”


    “That will do.”


    Taking a deep breath, Song Lixing looked at the clusters of starships through the 360-degree virtual window and waved his hands. “Let’s go. Lei Chenghu’s head is definitely ours!”


    The exhaust mes surged out, and the stars were shaking. The hundred thousand starships tore apart the raging tides raised by the three-dimensional space at the same time and enshrouded the entire Yellow Dragon Sector, covering thes and stars in colorful gauze and reflecting the most


    brilliant colors.


    The coalition army of the starships and the nobles lunged at the Jade Tripod Sector unstoppably.


    The fire of war in the Jade Cauldron Sector had been raging for more than half a month. Jade Cauldron and several other resources had been besieged by the revolutionary rebels. The entire space zone was full of the debris of starships and the intense interference force fields. Much of the


    battlefield data could not be transmitted.


    It was not until the coalition army of the Heaven’s Return Fleet and the nobles jumped to the Jade Tripod Sector that they were able to scan the entire space zone and establish tacticalmunication links and battlefield data models to reach out to the defenders on the ground.


    The Yellow Dragon Sector and the Jade Cauldron Sector were not far away from each other. It was a fairly smooth short-distance space jump. The fleet of the Heaven’s Origin Sector had even maintained a fairly intact formation. There were no such things as ‘blind jumps’ where starships had been blown


    away by four-dimensional storms and were scattered in a range of tens of billions of kilometers.


    Thetest intelligence that they received boosted the morale of the nobles, too.


    Firstly, the surface of Jade Cauldron and the few important resources was still under his control and had not been breached by the rebels.


    It meant that they had a solid defense and supply base.


    Secondly, intense space ripples were spreading out in a certain coordinate near the orbit of the fourth of the Jade Tripod Sector, which seemed to be the traces ofrge-scale space jumps.


    It was the most fragile ce with the most natural wormholes in the entire Jade Tripod Sector. It was also the busiest space jump point in history. It was the ‘proof’ of Bai Xinghe’s hasty escape!


    Thirdly, themander of the defense team reported in person that, after a day and a night of fiercebat, his fleet in the low-Earth orbit failed to stop Lei Chenghu’s remaining troops and even lost 90% of itsbat ability.


    However, Lei Chenghu did not pursue further. He destroyed the fleet of the defenders and upied Yuding. Instead, he chose to clean up the mess and ran toward the No. 4 together with the remnants of his fleet.


    ording to themander of the defense team, Lei Chenghu was in a hurry and did not even clean up the battlefield. He even abandoned many starships that were rtively slower and retreated from the battlefield without caring about anything.


    “Lei Chenghu knows the situation is hopeless and is ready to run away!”


    “He must’ve known that we wereing. His doom hase!”


    “Go after him! Don’t let him get away!”


    The starships of the fleet were brimming with fearless optimism.


    On the gship, the delegates of the Supreme Alliance Meeting were all celebrating the most brilliant victory in advance.


    Right now, everything was good. There was only onest question.


    At first, it was Bai Xinghe. Now, it was Lei Chenghu. The direction in which they fled in a hurry was the best space jump point of the Jade Cauldron Sector. The No. 4 was also the center of the war between the two parties over the past half month. The entire space zone was filled with intense


    electromaic interference, debris of starships, and unexploded cosmic mines. It was like a thick mist of war. Right now, nobody could tell what was going on there. There was no telling how many soldiers Lei Chenghu had left, or the morale, damage, andbat ability of the remaining soldiers.


    As the nominalmander-in-chief of the fleet, Song Bugui had done his part.


    He suggested that they take it slow and steady and send out a small batch of scouts to carry a lot of scanning magical equipment and scout crystal cameras so that they could figure out what was going on around the fourth space jump point.


    Such a prudent proposal was immediately attacked by the leaders of the military..
